we have stuff going on in afghanistan. the president promised to bring home troops. not going all the way through with his promise. i would love to see these issues tackled as opposed toed to this. i think there's weightier stuff. >> pete? >> well, the truth is a lot of people think that this is an issue that the left or democrats or liberals care more about. but president obama hasn't made much movement on this. gary johnson and ron paul are totally four decriminalizing and to some extent legalizing marijuana. the fact is if two drugs give you pain relief and one will kill you possibly and be addictive and the other won't, which one do you want to take? >> your buzzer beater now. if the gang of six plan actually helps cobble together a debt deal, what impasse task should they tackle next? dana. >> well, cobbling together is the right word. i like the cap and balance plan. i think if we're serious about getting the debt under control, we need to pass it in the senate a and present it to the president for his signature. this plan is a sham, does nothing to reduce taxe
